Explore Isafjordur, the capital of the Westfjords, a city as colorful as its gorgeous natural surroundings. Renowned as a bustling commercial and tourism center with a busy harbor, the city has plenty to make your vacation memorable. In winters, skiing and snow sports are a major draw while summers are mostly about hiking in the mountains and discovering the rich flora and fauna. There is no end to the modes of transportation to help you explore the fjords and valleys- from boats to horses, from kayaks to helicopters or bikes and jeeps. However you choose to travel, Mt. Oshild stands tall and proud in the calm bay with stunning views to capture while Vigur, a nearby island offers just the solitude for birdwatching. The Hornstadir National Park is another unmistakable attraction and the Westfjord History Museum gives you a nice perspective of the region. Whatever you do, the golden rule of thumb in Isafjorddur is to unwind at Dokkan Brugghús, a family-run brewery offering some fine craft beer.
